About 900 MB/s in practice, full speed for most portable SSDs.

Total ports

1

Compact: the essentials for travel or a light setup.

Why people pick it

  • Snaps onto a MagSafe iPhone, so the drive doesn't dangle from the cable while filming
  • Rated write speed is far above the 220MB/s SanDisk cites as the minimum for 4K60 ProRes
  • Light (54g), IP65 and rated for 3m drops

Know before you buy

  • 10Gbps interface; not the fastest option for big laptop transfers
  • SanDisk doesn't list hardware encryption or password protection
  • Magnetic attachment needs a MagSafe-compatible phone or case
